You're missing the forest through the trees. People are still going to consume more than they need regardless of how many labels and apps are warning them otherwise. High calorie/sugary drinks taste good and bring pleasure to the brain. Solving the obesity epidemic requires re-learning how to consume and work off calories.
Look at all the warning labels on cigarettes, etc. yet people still smoke them. Would a phone app telling you how much nicotine you're consuming get you to change your habit? No, the addiction is much deeper than just a lack of awareness that it's bad. We know sugary drinks are bad but we drink them anyways because we like them.
